Chapter 931 Terence VS Steven

"But Mom, Carla is from a powerful family. She is not only the daughter-in-law of the An family but also the eldest granddaughter of Yu Sea City. And Yu Sea City has always revered the An family.

If we get into an argument, I'm afraid, we won't stand a chance against her,"

Lucia said nervously. Carla was more powerful than she was in every aspect. Lucia knew that she had no chance of winning if they fought for Steven in marriage.

Dorothy stood up and walked to the window with her hands behind her back.

"I never expected Carla to be the fortunate one. If I had found out who she really was, then I would have been kind to her and treated her well."

Dorothy gritted her teeth and banged on the table in annoyance.

"What do you mean?" Lucia narrowed her eyes and walked towards her mother.

Dorothy snapped from her reverie. "Nothing, Lucia." She turned around and smiled softly. "You've got be very careful from now on. I don't want you to offend anyone anymore. You know, it's always better to have one good friend who always has your back. We've got to be patient now. I'm sure the situation will get better if we give it some time. Do you understand?"

Lucia pursed her lips and spoke hesitantly, "I know.

But I will not let go of Steven. I want him. I'm ready to give up anything for him. Please help me. I have to marry him."

"Yu Sea City is flooded with men. You can marry anyone you point your finger at. Why are you so crazy about Steven?"

"Mom, don't talk like that if you never seen him. I'm sure you'll be as surprised as I am. Men in Yu Sea City are nothing compared to him."

Lucia tugged Dorothy's arm and bounced up and down like a little kid. She had been fighting for Steven for a very long time and everyone in Yu Sea City was aware of her obsession for him. She was not ready to give up.

"Don't worry. I'll find out a way once things settle down." Dorothy smiled and stroked Lucia's hair comfortingly.

"Having many partners is normal here. But Mr. An is Carla's husband. From what I've heard, he is like the king of JA City. Their family is the most prestigious family in JA City. He will never agree to sharing his wife with another man.

So you don't have to worry about it. We have to think it over many times before making our next move. Patience is the key."

Lucia nodded in response. Her mother was right. She would ruin everything if she did not learn to be patient.

She knew that her grand

ns?"

"No, I don't care about your future. I want to know if you're going to stay here in Yu Sea City or not."

Terence leaned back on his chair and flicked the ash.

Steven took a sip of his tea and sighed loudly.

"What if I say yes?"

Terence's grip on the cigarette became stronger as he almost squeezed it. "So you don't intend to give up on my wife, ''

he said coldly.

Steven could understand Terence's concern.

Carla had finally found out about the truth of her past and she was sure to visit Yu Sea City often. Therefore, it was easy for Terence to guess why Steven insisted on staying.

"Would you believe me if I told you that I'm doing all this to help you out?"

Steven asked in a calm voice.

Terence narrowed his eyes and cast a quizzical glance at him.

Steven rubbed his temples and sighed.

"I know that the An family is quite powerful but I don't think you can cut all ties with the Yu family. Your father wouldn't want that. Doesn't he always want to expand his business?

According to the custom of Yu Sea City, once a mother gives up her power, she cannot regain her position even if she wants to. The only choice is to let the eldest daughter take over, which means, Andrea doesn't stand a chance. But Carla does.

If she gives up now, she will never be able to rise to power. By that, I mean even Sally would not be able to inherit the power when she grows up.

But if... Err..."

Steven stammered as he was nervous about what he was going to say. His palm became sweaty and his stomach churned with anxiety.

He was sure that his decision was going to knock Terence's socks off.
